Something/one of interest in Google terms?
First, some clarification. If I am giving a range, it usually means there is a bit of uncertainty regarding the specificity of searches - i.e., is this search REALLY trying to find the person we are looking at. In these cases, the lower bound is pretty certainly verified and accounted for, the upper bound tries to cover any side avenues of "income" as well as any uncertain searches, and the average if given is the amount I believe to most accurately represent the search volume after taking into account uncertain searches and other side avenues.
Idra? 246,000 global searches/month
HuK? Hard to say, his name is kind of generic. But, judging by trust rank and various similar search phrases... lower bound of 100-200k range (similar searches, i.e. not "HuK" but say "HuK games", that definitely refer to our lovely protoss make up ~100k alone), upper bound... 1.2 million lol.
Nestea? Almost certainly under 10k/month - Likely to be in the 3k-5k range, if even 5k.
oGsMC? 15-25k/month range.
DeMusliM? ~5.5k, about Nestea range if not slightly higher.
Let's go for a more well known European. I dunno though, who would be appropriate? Ah, let's try WhiteRa.
He gets... ~25k, maybe a bit more, but most likely not significantly more.
Jinro? 45-50k, again, maybe a bit more, but most likely not significantly more.
The one that trumps them all....teamliquid. Over 700k/month.
These were done really quickly btw, so don't expect it to be SUPER scientific. Call it Top Gear science - totally unscientific but informative.
Any suggestions for more data? I can look whatever up real quick.
edit - For reference, porn gets searched about 1.7 billion times per month. And Lebrom James about 5-6 million times.
Take it how you will, but our unscientific survey says Idra and HuK are the ambassadors of SC2.
edit2 - MORE METRICS!

Um.... fuck TLO is difficult. Minimum 50k, range is way too fucking wide lol, but almost certainly below 100k.

Day9, as mentioned above, is in the 1.0-1.8 million range, most likely at ~1.4million/month.
Destiny is obviously going to be a bit unclear on the range due to his generic name, but I estimate about he is within the 65k-100k range, wherein 65k is an established lower bound. Assuming more generic searches that somehow end up working, I doubt he passes the 100k ceiling.
Fruitdealer - 16k-25k range. Like in the case of the Destiny, I highly doubt that upper bound is approached.
Note that Flash and Jaedong probably get the majority of their searches in Korea, which predominantly uses Naver, not Google, so take these numbers with a grain of salt and look for a distant mountain.
Flash - 20k-25k
Jaedong - Same range as flash, 20-25k

Let's get some of the nonplayers out of the way.
Lindsey Sporrer - 260
Mr. Chae - 140
HDStarcraft - 60-80k, possiblility of another 100-150k but can't really tell if the search is for him or generic HD stuff. Could be even some more, but again, his name makes specificity hard ><
HuskyStarcraft - 330-400k
TotalBiscuit - 50k-170k, not really sure whether certain searches are specifically for him or not.
Tasteless - Well, depending on how you interpret the legitimacy of the search term "Tasteless", could be as low as 8k or as high as around 70k.
Artosis - 60-70k
Tastosis - 1300
Mr. Bitter - 5-8k
edit - On further inspection, TotalBiscuit has gained another 27k searches. Now he's in the 77k-197k range, but like all the other youtube/blip/etc channel uploaders, the search number is likely an understatement and/or incomplete image of popularity. Evidence - TotalBiscuit has 417,653 Youtube subscribers.

Bisu - man why did he have to pick a "common" name - as in it actually translates. Well, depending on whether people are actually searching for bisu (which they probably or) or are searching for daggers, range from 20k-100k, perhaps some more if the former is true.
YellOw - Common names... fuck my life. He is almost certainly probably below 20k, probably below 10k, possibly below 5k.
sAviOr - sigh... less than 5k.

jinro is an alcoholic drink in Korea so results are skewed. This applies to Nestea as well. Except not alcoholic :D

I could check Naver and all those other search engines too, but then to be really unscientific I'd have to be super selective and ... eh not worth the effort.

How popular is tl? I probably type that in at least three times a day haha.
Don't include tl acura though.

Difficult to say. "tl" has 6.12 million/month, but judging by relevant composite searches, they are almost certainly overwhelmingly directed towards the Acura. That is to say, if they didn't like the result they got, they probably searched for teamliquid next. There are no significant (read: ~20k composite results compared to ~700k for teamliquid type stuff) sources that I can for certain say are refined searches for teamliquid.net which use "tl" in them. So, the teamliquid-type search results probably cover most everyone who is googling for teamliquid.

I think this would be more representative if we counted, say, Baidu and Naver as well. I looked at those NesTea numbers and felt "there's no way that's right"

judging from those results idra must mean something in italian right?
Edit: It means hydra

Yea, this is Google only atm. I suppose I could look into Baidu and Naver too... at some point in the near future. Being in bed makes me so lazy ~_~

That Day9 number is a lot bigger than I ever thought it would be.

Well, I feel like Day9 would be skewed by a lot of data tables that list data by concurrent days. So Day1,day2,day3, etc.

While that may be the case, note that 475k come from "day9", 673k from "day[9]", and the remaining 400k+ from completely unambiguous composite search terms such as "day9 blip tv", "day 9 daily" and so on.
edit - Actually, I think you think I am referring to # of search results, rather than the # of times people are searching for a term. Otherwise the data table skew makes no sense to me.

Searching for Day7, Day8, etc. and subtracting the average total from Day9's searches would be an elegant solution to account for this.

Average of day1 through day9 is about 35k, with dramatic dropoff towards the end (day8 only had 8.8k). Let's be super dramatic and cut off various other similar searches, and guesttimate that we need to cut off 100k-200k searches/month because it is about 3+ times the observed quantity for that particular skew and looks pretty, and call it at 1.2-1.3 million for mr. 9
But of course, the huge dropoff suggests we dramatically over compensated, and probably covered just about every other unwanted searches, and then probably some legitimate ones too.
